Kansas Letter.

WAKEFIELD, Kan, Nov. %, '87.
Editors NeaUS and Citizen:
AS it is so cold l can do very little
else to-day 1 will try and pen few
lines for your readers. 1t is clear and
bright to-day and cold for the time of
year. 1t commenced raining Satur-
day morning and rained till about ten
o'clock, when it commenced to snow,
and continued until dark. The wind
grew colder all the time until the Their
mometer registered 10 degrees below
zero at sunrise Sunday morning. 1t
probably will last but short time
and then be warmer. The Rock
Island railroad laid its rails through
Clay Center a week ago last Saturday
and have only about ten or fifteen
miles more to lay before they will
meet from each way. They have a
force sufficient TO lay ten and a half
miles day. They are also putting
up the telegraph poles and wires.
The construction train takes ties, rails,
fish-plates, bolts, spikes, telegraph
poles and wire, and in fact everything
that is needed after the road-bed is
graded. No teams are required in
putting down the ties or rails, and
they go down fast, too. They put
down Ga feet of rails every two and
one.half minutes when they are on a
clear road-bed. We expect the regu-
lar trains will run about the middle
December. Miss Ella Maxfield from
johnson arrived in Clay Center a
week ago last Saturday and started
for San Francisco last Wednesday in
company with Mrs. Flora Randall,
formerly Miss Flora Bishop, where
they intend spending the winter.
Many have gone from here to Califor-
MIA this fall and many more intend
going. Great accounts of the wages
laboring men receive there are heard
from, so they sell out what little prop
erty they have and skip out for the

find it all honey and milk when they
land there. w. A. DEMERITT.

A Common Law Marriage.

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-The suit of Ida NJ.
Bowman for temporary alimony and So
licitor's fees against her alleged husband,
Frank J. Bowman, st. Louis lawyer, was
heard in the circuit court to-day before
Judge Tuley. Mr.. Bowman met the plain
tiff in st. Louis in 1879. He had already
one wife, from whom he was trying to
obtain a divorce, and the plain
tiff alleges he promised to marry
her when he secured the separation.
On June "a, last, he obtained his decree
in the South, and from that time till he
contracted formal marriage with another
lady he acknowledged Ida as his wife.
She set up claim of common law mar
rage, and the suit heard this morning
involved alimony pending the hearing Of a
divorce suit against him. Bowman is
a well known lawyer, and he is
credited with having received one of the
largest fees known in the legal history of
Missouri, SIS, 900. The plaintiff has had
two children by him. A number of letters
were read in court which occasioned some
merriment. The court ordered Bowman to
pay S10O solicitor fees and $15 week
alimony until the divorce case is heard.

THE BOSTON CLUE.
Now Ht Has Secured Kelly 1t Is Tryn
ing tn q eft q HSScoclx

NEW YORK. Feb. 15.-Director Billings,
of the Boston Base Ball club, was in this
city to-day and confirmed the story about
the payment of $40, 900 to the Chicago club
for Kellys release. adding that Kelly had
insured his life for $4,000 to secure the
Boston club against loss. Mr.. Billings
says he intends to get Glasscock
if he can. He thinks that
the league committee has no right to distri-
butte the players of the St. Louis club, and
he intends to make hard fight against it.
He has offered $500 for Glasscock, and
does not intend to let Chicago get him if he
can help it. Mr.. Billings says BurdIck
will remain with the Boston club and play
second base. Should he play good ball the
club may find ready sale for him at from
SO. 600 TO $4,000. Spalding was much afraid
that New York would get Kelly and he had
the agreement so framed as to prevent
Kelly from going anywhere but to Boston,
Spalding wants Glasscock, and has asked
for a meeting of the league committee at
once. This meeting will be held on Friday
or Saturday, but where is not known.
From what the New York club managers
say 1t seems to be settled thing that Glass
cock will go to Boston.

Several Catholic jurors, including one
